+nxtvepg - Decoder, Browser and Analyzer for the Nextview
+ Electronic Programme Guide
+
+nxtvepg is an X11 application to decode, analyze and browse TV programme
+schedules transmitted on analog TV channels as defined in ETS 300 707:
+"Protocol for a TV Guide using electronic data transmission" by the European
+Telecommunications Standards Institute.
+
+nxtvepg enables you to obtain free TV programme listings for all of the major
+networks in Germany, Austria, France and Switzerland.
+
+Currently Nextview EPG is transmitted by the following TV networks (note that
+each of these EPGs cover not only the provider's programme but also that of many
+other networks): Kabel1, 3Sat, RTL-II (Germany and Austria), SF1, TSR1, TSI1,
+EuroNews (Switzerland), Canal+, M6 (France), TRT-1 (Turkey).
+
+You will need a bktr(4) compatible tv tuner card with teletext support in order
+to use nxtvepg.
+
+It is recommended to check the card's setup before using nxtvepg, e.g. with the
+following applications from the ports collection:
+graphic/fxtv for tv tuner and misc/alevtv for Teletext support.
